Work's been relatively boring lately. Requires no brain activity, and as a result, I've been feeling so damn sleepy that I feel like I need a nap during the day (been sleeping fine at night). Of course, as soon as I get out of here my energy returns.
Been reading a lot of books lately. I've read two of the Ender's Game series, recentl started another one in the set and finished The City of Ember and The People of Sparks. While the last two are children books (or teen, whatever), they are quite good, and would have been even better if done on a higher level. But I heard they are planning on making a movie out of The City of Ember, so it must be pretty popular.
I've been doing a lot of reflecting lately (that happens when the mind is bored), and decided a lot of people I know (or knew for that matter) are selfish. I see people who use others all the time, who think only of themselves, and nothing for others, and it really pisses me off. People who take and never give aren't the worst. People who take, and never give back thinking that they are, are the worst. Self indulgant and diluted. We are all like this at one point in our lives. I was when I was younger. But I realized in my early teens that I hated being that way, so I do my best not to. That's why I give and rarely take. Of course, there may be some deep, psychological reasons for that, who knows. I have my own theories, but they are of no importance.
I hope everyone is doing well. I haven't been able to catch up on my lj. Been rather busy and distracted. Glad to hear about your pants though Tori. Truth be told, you're a bad reminder of Mike, who's a bad reminder of you, etc, etc, etc.
Sigh. Life is just a never-ending cycle of utter crap.
